How clouds form around aerosols (VIDEO)
Caption
How a cloud forms on a particle-level. Water droplets and black soot aerosols mix in the air. Water droplets cling to aerosol particles, creating a larger water droplet until it pops into smaller droplets, each with an aerosol particle inside, creating a cloud and falling to Earth when it rains.
